Handcuffing Jobs

[Bluetooth]

I handcuffed a suspect for a job, but it didn't seem to give me the credits for it. Did I miss something? Is there something you have to do after cuffing them, except for hitting the resolve button?

When you hit resolve, it will ask you to name the suspsect, if the named suspect is cuffed, it will count as done. But the tricky part is actually cuffing the right person. If someone you cuffed isn't the suspect, it will fine you.

Note that cuffed person only stay cuffed for couple of hours, so do that last.

Thanks! I had the right person, but didn't have the name in.

It's also worth noting that you have to put the name in before cuffing them, otherwise it won't register.

At least, that's what happened to me once on a murder investigation... not sure if that was a bug or normal behvaior.

This just happened to me. Luckily they were only a building over from the courthouse, so I just went back and looked at them again, and it caused the handcuff checkmark to appear correctly.

Oh, interesting.

I was in the same room, staring at them when I added the name, but that didn't help.

Maybe it would have if I'd walked closer and inspected them? Or perhaps left the room and came back?

I'll try to keep that in mind next time I forget to add the name before cuffing.

You don't need to check in. Game will still verify whether suspect is in cuffs when you hand-in the case, so order doesn't matter.
